... only two customers: the MS Albatros (IMO nº 7304314) and the MV Silver Cloud (IMO nº 8903923). A quiet and relaxed day, although a bit grey, in Funchal bay.
The Starboard side bridge wing Anschutz gyro repeater of the MV Silver Cloud photographed moments before her departure, around 1700, from Funchal. On her stern, following her on the departure manouevre, lays, still alongside, the MS Albatros.
